30 MONTEREY COUNTY WEEKLY August 10-16, 2023 www.montereycountyweekly.com CAR WEEK Several years ago, the host of television’s Chasing Classic Cars, Wayne Carini, attempted the impossible. With the help of additional camera crews, he set out on a mission to visit every Car Week event. That was before the advent of the Corkscrew Hillclimb and Community Day, the Monterey Motorsports Festival, Hot Chili Nights and other additions since the episode aired. Between car shows, auctions, races, cruises, seminars, markets and parties, there are some 35 events open to the public. Even over a 10-day run, hitting them all is difficult. Here’s just some of what’s happening through Aug. 16, with free events flagged as such. Car Week ends on Aug. 20. For a more complete calendar of events, visit mcweekly.com.
